ok guys the streamyx technician came yesterday, here's what happened..
arrived at my place 5pm, brought his equipments to check/diagnose etc, the new modem, but no dect phones. he said once my 4mb package is successfully installed, then he'll give me a receipt/slip for me to get the dect phones at tmpoint centre. they will not bring the dect phones to the house. anyway, there are two things (in the streamyx diagnose page) he told me whether a user is capable of upgrading to 4mb or not.. one is the 'SNR Margin' and the other is 'Line Attenuation'. If i remember correctly by what he told me, SNR Margin is related to the distance between our house to the tmpoint / fibre optic cable server substation (whatever).. and the value shouldn't be more than 45. if it shows more than 45, it means that the house is too far for an optimum connection. Basically he said, houses located >3km from the two places i mentioned earlier are incapable for 4mb package. Mine displayed 48 Line Attenuation, is regarding the phone line quality (direct from tiang to the modem), which should display above 15 for optimum connection. Mine was 13.5 even if he did give me the package, there is a possibility for faulty connection, later complaint to streamyx, streamyx will complaint to technician (why he installed eventhough he knew my house is incapable).. arrgh dammit |

The technician is WRONG!
SNR: the more the merrier Line Attenuation: less is better QUOTE(futra @ Jul 24 2010, 11:13 AM) ok guys the streamyx technician came yesterday, here's what happened..

as expected, any kind of TM-internal complaint channel doesn't works at ALL....
go straight to http://aduan.skmm.gov.my/ in my case, gotten feedback frm TM staff within 3 working days strongly recommended ! ( a proper way to track ISP down too ) |

You got it mixedSNR Margin is the margin The SNR - actual SNR that is needed to sync at 4Mbps = SNR Margin More means , your line is good , it can sync at higher speeds line attenuation , changes throughout the day . The lower the better |

I think this blockbuster deal is better than the UNIFI isn't it?
For VIP5 plan which costs rm150, you get a 5mb download but it comes with a 60mb cap. For blockbuster, rm140 you get a 4mb speed but without cap. So it's better right? Or am I missing something? p.s. Im an existing streamyx user This post has been edited by barca96: Jul 26 2010, 12:33 PM |
